I try, I really do but the only person I wind up upsetting are Streets of Rage fans and they barely count, do they?

Not really; I doubt anyone really plays it anymore... :pac:

Oh look, I have bought plenty of stuff in Charity shops, nothing wrong with the stock at all.

I have picked up some vintage stuff there too, shirts and the like... you just don't get epaulettes on enough stuff anymore! Where else am I going to put my beret?

I've given up looking in the shops in Dublin, nothing but stacks and stacks of FIFA games for the PS2

Probably because myself and my mate in college fleeced them all about 5 years ago

I really wish we'd gotten some photos of that massive, Eldorado type mound of consoles and games we found upstairs in that charity shop around Capel Street. That was stuff made of dreams. Was such a shame I was a broke student at the time

Was hilarious though, all of the consoles were tangled up in this dense bush of cables. You'd be trying to get some power cables freed to test something and unearth another mound of consoles. I think there was about 10-15 n64s alone.

To make it even funnier, the shop owner had sent a couple of these Nigerian oul ones who worked there to price everything we pulled out before selling it to us.

I still live for the day I walk into a shop the same afternoon someone's own personal Sauron has finally carried out their threat and dropped off the entire collection.

Reminds me of that scene in High Fidelity, where this lady is trying to sell him a load of rare records for sweet fanny adams, to get back at her husband.
My conscience wouldnt stop me though.
